The weather in August is clear and crisp. Going fishing in Jinghu District every year is one of the traditional activities in Linhai City. After all, the ecological environment here is a very precious wonder for Linhai, which is relatively high altitude and relatively cold.

Li Xinzhi pulled out the fallen season on his head, staring at the motionless fishing rod hanging on the water surface with concentration, while drinking the warm hot tea in the thermos.

I have to say that this place gets cold very quickly. It is too hot in the morning, and you have to wear autumn clothes in the afternoon.

Although I feel that it is a bit embarrassing to wear this thing at my age, but for the sake of health, I still put on a sleeveless knitted sweater. Wow! I am not really going to become a retired old man, am I?

"By the way, aren't we going to have a talk?" Ji Qingjue, who was sitting on the left and also staring at the fishing rod, looked helplessly at this boy of the same age whose age and behavior were completely inconsistent.

Just now, when Li Xinzhi said seriously that he wanted to have a talk, she was still a little uneasy. After all, his serious look made people feel that they must listen to him carefully.

But this guy suddenly became willful and said that he wanted to go fishing. He said that people were not allowed to talk loudly while fishing, and that he would not go home if he could not catch any fish.

Although it was strange that Li Xinzhi suddenly went crazy, she thought that he had helped Grandma Zhiyun, and she had the obligation to repay him, and it was not a strange request.

So Ji Qingjue and Song Zhiyao cleaned up the dishes and cleaned up the house, then picked up the fishing rod and tool box and prepared to take the troublemaker to go fishing.

As a student with a tight living allowance, he himself... Of course, we need to master some methods to obtain calories independently, because the one who is close to the water gets the moon first, so Ji Qingjue and Song Zhiyao often come here to fish to improve their meals.

The location is an extremely remote abandoned pier. This is a Feng Shui treasure land accidentally discovered by Song Zhiyao, who often runs around the Jinghu Road for exercise.

Not only are there no people occupying seats, but you can also see fish jumping out of the water, so the three of them sat in a row, fishing in the lake, and time flew by as if it was free.

But the three of them seemed to be in a daze, staring blankly at the beautiful Jinghu Lake, and missed the opportunity to catch fat fish several times.

But unexpectedly, Ji Qingjue felt that his anxious mood had been soothed recently, and he gradually figured out some things in his heart, but looking at Li Xinzhi with a calm face, he was still a little angry.

"Then let's talk. I've been waiting for you to speak." Feeling that the unhappy person beside him had finally calmed down, Li Xinzhi smiled and said

"You...really." Ji Qingjue wanted to lose her temper at the rogue-like behavior of this guy, but her heart, which had already calmed down, gradually calmed herself down.

Ji Qingjue could feel that because of her own prejudice and anxiety, she had a bad attitude towards this boy who seemed to be unruly in words but very gentlemanly and well-behaved in actions.

Although she wanted to apologize and thank him for helping Grandma Zhiyun, for some reason, she could not bring herself to lose face and always wanted to lose her temper. Could it be that she had also reached the stage of Chuunibyou?

""Miss Qingjue, what do you think is the difference between you and me?" Li Xinzhi continued to look at the lake in the distance, and at the same time, in a persuasive manner, asked Ji Qingjue a very straightforward question. Ji Qingjue was a little stunned. She didn't understand why Li Xinzhi suddenly asked this. This was not a very simple answer.

Li Xinzhi had money and abilities far beyond his peers. Asking this kind of question was really not a deliberate show-off?

"You are asking despite knowing the answer. You are very rich and capable, and you can help Grandma Zhiyun.……"But even though he was angry, Ji Qingjue still told the truth.

Facing Grandma Zhiyun's difficulties, he could only helplessly give her spiritual support, while this guy solved everything in a light-hearted way, like a savior. It was really unacceptable. Ji Qingjue hated himself for only saying nice things.

"It is indeed an objective fact, but we also have a lot in common."Li Xinzhi continued to drink his tea calmly, but from the slight vibration of the fishing rod in his hand, he felt that it was time to fish.

"What is it?" Ji Qingjue responded somewhat unhappily to this overly mature guy, but he couldn't help but want to listen to his answer.

"They will bleed and cry all the same, and the end will be death." Li Xinzhi looked into the distance, reciting some cruel truths and laws like a poem.

"Is this considered sophistry? And saying all this suddenly is too heavy!"Ji Qingjue couldn't help but spit out a bad word, but deep in his heart, he was still slightly touched.

"It's just describing objective facts. Of course, I don't deny that I'm rich, capable, and handsome! But... Miss Qingjue, I'm alone like you, and I have no place to go back to."

After Li Xinzhi responded calmly, he suddenly showed off proudly, which made Ji Qingjue look disgusted. However, his voice suddenly became low, and Li Xinzhi's face was complicated, and he talked about his current situation or past.

"ah……"Ji Qingjue was a little dazed by the change of topic, staring at Li Xinzhi's angular profile. She could feel that this boy did not lie to her.

"Although you may not believe it, I have the same experience and feelings as you. I have experienced the grievance and powerlessness."Feeling that Ji Qingjue was willing to listen to him seriously, Li Xinzhi turned his head and looked at Ji Qingjue, speaking his innermost thoughts word by word.

For the first time, Ji Qingjue saw Li Xinzhi's iron-gray eyes, and the deep fatigue and sadness under his calmness. What had he experienced to make this boy look like this?

"Besides, I am not a person of noble blood as you imagine. I am just a rootless person who does not know my true origin. In other words... I am also an orphan."

Li Xinzhi continued. In his previous life, he would never be honest with others. He did not know why he had to say these things to Ji Qingjue, whom he had only known for a few days. However, he felt that Ji Qingjue was very similar to him.

The same sharpness, the same stubbornness, the same unwillingness to accept help, and only wanted to rush forward until everyone recognized him.

But he had proved that this idea was a failure in his previous life, and he did not want this lovely girl to go down this old path, which was a road full of thorns and tears.

"Mr. Nobuyuki... I'm sorry, I have been rude these past few days."

"It's okay, adults don't care about the mistakes of small people~"

"you!"

"Haha, the fish is about to be caught, we'll talk about it later, anyway, let's get along as equals from now on!"

After listening to Li Xinzhi's heartfelt words, the smart Ji Qingjue immediately understood what he meant, and then apologized. It was true that she had a prejudice against Li Xinzhi, but what he said now was Li Xinzhi's sincere communication with her.

After all, he could tell his hidden emotions and thoughts to someone he had only known for a few days, which showed his trust and sincerity in her.

However, Ji Qingjue didn't expect that this guy was the same as herself. He looked irritating, but he was an orphan like herself.

Although he was a bit rude , he was not very polite.���It's not a secret, but Ji Qingjue knew that he was not the kind of person who would casually joke about such topics. After all, he seemed to care about his reputation.

And indeed, Li Xinzhi was quite handsome, although not the type that would amaze people at first sight, but the type that was gentle and introverted... ah! Really, what was I thinking about! I am not that kind of casual person. When it was Ji Qingjue's turn to look at the side, she felt a blush creeping up her face, and just when she was about to say something from the heart, this guy's attention was attracted by the fish again.

Really, this guy is so rude, why did I start to care about him so much, it's really weird! Thinking of this, Ji Qingjue couldn't help but turn her head slightly to see Li Xinzhi's reaction.

"Oh! I'm going to catch something." At this time, Li Xinzhi turned his attention to the fishing rod, as excited as a child. After waiting for three hours, he finally caught something.

As the fishing rod in his hand became bigger and bigger, the long-accumulated energy was activated. Li Xinzhi pulled it up with all his strength, and sure enough, the fat fish was caught out of the water!

"Great, we’re caught!"

""Ah?!!!!"

Song Zhiyao jumped excitedly, holding up the fat fish in her hand and shouting. She had been silent until now, except for chewing the senbei she brought to kill time and drinking water. She was concentrating on the fishing rod, and because she was wearing headphones, she didn't hear the mysterious communication between Li Xinzhi and Ji Qingjue.

Li Xinzhi was unlucky, and he got the biggest shame of a fisherman, empty air. He looked at the bait that was bitten off the fishing rod, the cool wind blew on him, and he was confused.

His prey was swaying as if teasing him, and biting off the bait at the last moment, which made Li Xinzhi feel very embarrassed. He was pretending to be deep and it was almost over, but this dead fish was so ignorant.

""Haha!" A burst of gloating laughter sounded, like a silver bell, and Ji Qingjue laughed so hard that her stomach hurt. After all, seeing this guy who was always so confident in his plan embarrassed himself, it was really unbearable.

Li Xinzhi turned his head a little unhappy, wanting Ji Qingjue to stop laughing, but when he saw her smile, he thought she was still pretty. It would be better to say that he liked the way girls smile.

"Don't worry, Mr. Xinzhi, this fish is yours!" When he thought being unhappy was a little cute, his left shoulder was suddenly patted, and with that nice and strong voice, Song Zhiyao was considerate and expressed his willingness to give the fish to Li Xinzhi. Anyway, he didn't care about winning or losing, as long as he could eat the fish!

But Li Xinzhi was frightened by this brainless action, goose bumps broke out, and subconsciously wanted to find protective gear to wear.

Really, he forgot to wear a helmet when fishing with the girl who almost took his life. How can you fish without a helmet!

"What a big fish! Let's make tofu and fish soup tonight."After laughing enough, Ji Qingjue regained his composure and looked at the ingredients with some joy, saying that he would make something delicious.

Since Li Xinzhi could reluctantly trust her and it was Grandma Zhiyun's good intention, she couldn't refuse. To be honest, she was a little reluctant to leave this place that felt like home.

"Wow! Qingjue is so nice!"After hearing that his roommate finally agreed to stay, Song Zhiyao shouted happily, while praising Chef Qingjue who was about to bring delicious food.

"But Mr. Xinzhi is a bit lame, I thought I could catch a big fish~" However, since this guy asked me to get along with him on an equal footing, I should be rude to him. Ji Qingjue thought clearly and said rudely to Li Xinzhi.

"Yes, you have to concentrate when fishing. I found that Mr. Xinzhi has been slacking off!"Song Zhiyao at the side also made a timely finishing move, complaining about this seemingly brave fisherman. Li Xinzhi felt a little uncomfortable. Really, he wanted to pretend to be a senior and educate these two stubborn girls, but he was killed instead. No, he had to get back at them. Thinking of this, Li Xinzhi had an idea and picked up the pebbles under his feet.

Puff~puff~puff~puff~puff

The stones jumped on the clear water. Li Xinzhi made a very beautiful water skip, then raised his head proudly, indicating his handsome posture. Sure enough, if you want to show off, water skipping is the best choice.

"Okay! Don't underestimate me, watch me." Ji Qingjue, angered by this silent provocation, also picked up a stone and skipped it beautifully. Apart from anything else, he was no slouch in skipping stones.

"Come on Qingjue!"Song Zhiyao, who likes to watch the fun, cheered like a fire. Although he really wanted to participate in this competition, he thought it would be a fish frying competition considering his strength and skills.

Ji Qingjue and Li Xinzhi began to compete, each of them used all their skills to throw the stones in their hands, and they both wanted to make a beautiful trajectory. They didn't want to decide the winner, but they both liked this intense way of communication. As the night was approaching, the sun was about to set, gradually giving way to the starry night, and the day and night alternated.

The laughter and scolding of boys and girls kept interweaving on the Mirror Lake, accompanied by the crisp sound of water drifting and the taste of youth, and the inner barriers began to gradually dissolve.
